A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about employee commuting, including the timeframe for when the analysis was conducted and how a representative sample was reached, if applicable:

In fall 2014, the ASUM Office of Transportation administered a survey to all campus users (census survey, not a sample), including administrators, faculty, staff, and students. Full-time and part-time affiliates responded, as we did not select for either group. Student participation in the survey was low (hence having to re-administer the survey to students in 2015), but faculty participation was high and staff participation was reasonable. We received a 38% response rate. The survey was sent to the campus community in early October 2014 and we allowed affiliates 2 weeks to respond before closing the survey and analyzing our data.
